Extremists In The Halls of Congress | MSNBC
Now the quiet part is being said out loud, with no apology.
@PeacockPoverty I don’t think any race of people is better than anybody else. What is good for one is good for all. If white supremacist we’re going and having an all-out attack on people all over. People would not have to fake racial attacks. There are just as many black racist as they are white racist. Until people recognize that fact we will never be free of the racism controversy….
@Tonie Freeman afraid ?
@Gerald McKencie fake is fooked.
@Co. Wal Drone yes, you are a bot, thanks for.the admission
democrats support criminals
Republican party leaders are not guided by the love of this country but by fear of Trump.
@ILLEGITIMATE DEMENTED Joe
I spoke with many of these who fled their countries that was infested with corruptions, socialism, and dictatorship..
I’m sure they had experienced it all and are more informed than a lot of people..
One of them told me “ I don’t care if I love Trump or not, I’m voting for a president, not for someone to sleep with in bed” lol
@לוין חנניה כהן לוין
lol.. make sense..I deal with many of them.. I often hear them saying “ we wished we were born in this country “ Many still don’t understand why some of us who were born in this country still chasing for the minimum wages.. as one told me
“ if someone was born in the USA, healthy, and over 26y but still chasing for the minimum wages or have no job then it’s their problem, not the system problem “..
I couldn’t argue much because I don’t know what to say 🤣
@ILLEGITIMATE DEMENTED Joe
It’s funny such a controversial figure.. One book store owner told me if you go to eBay or Amazon and type “ Trump book” you’ll see endless of listening.. he said in terms of books or articles that was written on him/about him, Trump is ranked # 3 after the #1 Bible and #2 Napoleon!
Imagine!
TDS ITS BIG BIG BIG IN COMMIE LAND 🤣🤣🤣
dems are trying to destroy usa and freedoms
if he didn’t feel threatened by the Rioters, why didn’t he stay on the floor and listen to the concerns of those that stormed the Capitol?
Very simple. Two possibilities:
* He lied and denies he was afraid.
* He is really involved and didn’t want to show that.
Exactly! Johnson was just as afraid as the rest of the people in there and there’s a more than good chance he would have been attacked. Because if he was confronted he would have had to make a choice, try and stop them by calling on them to not to trash the congress and people or join them to stand with them to save his own neck! Damned if he does and seen on tv taking part in an insurrection and damned if he doesn’t and face the wrath of the mob!
The quiet part are the crime statistics which they actively ban on this network because they don’t want people speaking the truth.
brittany moron said time is racist
@Ivan McBleedy you’re insane. Hahaha. Not even the cameramen or the lefty blm activists in there were scared. You want bloodlust? Look at the commie antifa and blm terrorists that burn down buildings and were throwing molotov cocktails at the white house. You lefties need to stop banging kids and learn something about the world.
Good thing Ron Johnson isn’t running for re-election again.

Bill Gates Collaborated with China Firm BGI Genomics that Was Caught Mining Americans’ Data
Published March 8, 2021 at 3:53pm
BGI Genomics—the Chinese Communist Party-linked genomics firm flagged by U.S. officials as “mining” the DNA of Americans—has collaborated extensively with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, The National Pulse can reveal.
The company has recently come under fire following a 60 Minutes exposé on the company’s use of COVID-19 tests to “collect, store and exploit biometric information” on American citizens, according to former U.S. intelligence officials. What’s more, a recent Reuters article linked the firm to the Chinese Communist Party’s military.
In addition to the Obama administration enabling the firm to gain a foothold in the U.S., the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation played a critical role in BGI’s American expansion.
WOKE: Pepé Le Pew Cut From ‘Space Jam 2’ For Sexually Inappropriate Behavior with Female Cartoon Characters
WOKE YET 😀 IF not, I can give lots more 😀
Johnson is nothing more than a old school klansmen rationalizing like a child.
@PendeltonWhiskey Your only response is a personal attack. You cannot offer a scholarly or rational response. BYW, I do enjoy a snifter of Pendleton from time to time.
@PendeltonWhiskey cool story.
@T. R. Campbell Keep sniveling snowflake, it’s music to my ears.
Please, don’t ever stop!
@PendeltonWhiskey We have a live CCP bot that hasn’t blown his vacuum tubes yet ❓ 😀 Perhaps I can fix that for you 😀
Promise not to cry and scream at sky ❓ 🤣
Klansman or Nazi sympathizer? Wisconsin had American Nazis back in the 30s.
We know why they’re feeling so emboldened. It’s called TRUMP.
Opened the door and they said, thanks boss!
@Crimdor let me guess. You’re implying those statistics will show POC are this nation’s real problem.
Your Majesty – yes, but all violence from any group should be addressed. I just think addressing the biggest group causing the problems of violence should be more important.
He gone sweetie. He gone.
trump owns you
Ron Johnson is a disgrace. Is this who you are Wisconsin?
He’s some kind of nut job!
Blaming all of Wisconsin for Ron Johnson is like blaming all of Florida for Rick Scott. Not fair, since a large portion of those states did not vote for either of those nuts.
@Constituent A a majority did vote for him. If you didn’t you should be trying to recall and impeach him. The majority need to do the correct thing. He’s representing the far right wing nuts.
what’s left of wisconsin anyway!!
Facts: Wisconsin re-elect this man in 2016 at that time he was fine until Mitch and the Former Guy own this man to do what they said. Now Ronny betrayed Wisconsin and he doesn’t care except playing politics. I hope they god rid of him in 2022.
Ron Johnson he wasn’t afraid, maybe he was one of their leaders,
@Crimdor Those are not organized attacks against unknown persons. This often involves drugs and gangs.
m jones – which those cause more violence than any other demographic
@Crimdor They are not rt wing or Left wing groups however.
m jones – but it’s a more important issue that I wish both parties would come together to address.
@Crimdor That part is very true- it is very sad.
So many well educated adults in Congress with the mind set of a 3 year old.
So Many QULTs in ALL Level Govt!
Theocratic Fascist Takeover
Well educated? The country that let preexisting conditions endanger the lives and livelihoods of their own people in order to enrich the wealthy is anything but well educated.
@Gerald McKencie Good point because I have never ever seen those statistics reported on the main stream news. It’s always “the other deserves it because” I am considered white btw because the native part of my mother was destroyed and dismissed.
@Crimdor you mean the jumps in suicides
Because of trumps failed economics
@Sue S I tried posting links
But youtube hates me
Embarrassed to be a Wisconsinite!
Likewise to be a South Carolinian.

@Martin Brodie You are all so close to being American! Just a few more people getting involved and you could be rid of these GOP scum. vote.gov
Ron Johnson is a full on white supremacists!!
Come back to me, CM, man. I’m willing to let the insult slide, assuming it was just a knee-jerk reaction to the argument, the assumption that somebody who doesn’t agree is a supremacist.
I just want to understand how you come to these conclusions. You cite the FBI as if they are the truthsayers, and you refer to them as Trump’s FBI. First and foremost, they are Establishment, and don’t forget it.
So you happily accept their explanation, despite the abundance of evidence which contradicts it, evidence which is in plain view, right in front of your eyes?
Is there anything they could tell you that you won’t believe?
I wouldn’t know about dirty protests, Q, I have no idea!
Dirty pigs though, I say, get them on all counts, including the crime of dirty protesting. Lol.
Orrr…you are absolutely insane , miserable and brainwashed to hate. You are the bad guys.
@Co. Wal Drone you’re a bigot ,except im yelling the truth and you are lying….nutjob.
Cowards finally took their sheets off! Revenge hasn’t been executed yet!!!!👀
https://youtu.be/0AcMp9JJ8q0
They also murdered law enforcement.
@Troll Account Sure, and I’m sorru if you are hurting. But you could take a pain killer and have a little lie down to feel better, or just stop listening to the Qweirdos and magatards and their lies.
@Troll Account That is simply not true, as Nick Warren has explained. But even if you discount the violence, BLM and the insurrection on January 6 are not comparable at all. While BLM fought for racial justice and against police brutality, the insurrectionists at the Capitol fought to disrupt the democratic process, to stop the peaceful transfer of power from an incumbent President who lost the election to the newly elected President, elected by the people. The former fight was just and in furtherance of civil rights, while the latter was the complete opposite: criminal, against the will of the people and based on a lie perpetrated by the former President and his Republican henchmen.

@Johan Nilsson That is true. Just because you can justify it in your mind doesn’t mean it never happened. Facts don’t care about your feelings, buddy.
Big Butts Matter
That is what he said in public. Now imagine what he says in private.
@TheDiamond2009 the violence that I remember from the BLM protests was Kyle Rittenhouse killing two people and shooting another, a man in Albuquerque who is part of a right-wing wanna be military “New Mexico Civil Guard” group, shot and killed a person.
Racist Boogaloo boy Steven carillo shot two security officers in front of a federal building in Oakland. One officer died, and the other was severely injured. Plus others racist white-wing right-wing ps
@TheDiamond2009 I think it’s fair to say most of the violence that happened during the black lives matter protest was caused by racist Trump loving right wing provocateurs. And all of the violence that occurred during the capitol Insurrection were caused by racist Trump loving right-wing provocateurs
You’re all feeble and corrupt, completely devoid of any moral fibre. Sleep well this evening, fellas.
@TheDiamond2009 yeah everybody’s wrong and you’re the one person that’s right. That makes sense
dems love racist biden
You can look at those people breaching the capital and don’t find them wholesome. It’s Ron Johnson that I find scary.
Because you can’t control him.
@Q is Fictional Ron Johnson did do one thing right. He made the Senate read the entire COVID relief bill out loud in front of everyone and exposed the blatant corruption of both parties with how overly inflated and full of port it was. Yet, you want to condemn him for revealing this to everyone? Why?!
Ron Johnson should be removed for his horrible ideas of people based on their skin and ideas of fairness.
We’re still puzzled, Trap Daddy. Nobody here seems to be able to articulate it properly, but you can be sure it’s “Racist!!” You knew that though, I guess, when they announced the guest’s title.
Although you’ve fallen into that classic trap, Daddy, of believing that Antifa is a group, rather than an “idea”.
@TheDiamond2009 How can an idea take over city blocks “Chaz“… how can an idea burn down courthouses, dry hump statues, and act like animals in the street For over 200 days?… That is the definition of terrorist
Well I must admit, Trap Daddy, I have on occasion dry-humped a statue. Although it was all perfectly harmless fun and I was exceedingly drunk at the time.
These people genuinely try to defend what happened in 2020 as being dwarfed by the gravity of the Capitol assault, or try to argue it was people on the right who were doing it. It’s laughable. It was all left-wing fuelled violence, designed with one single aim. Politicians stayed silent at best, and some encouraged it, as did the media. These people are morally corrupt.
@TheDiamond2009 Maybe “those people” should quit committing crimes consider Fentanyl Floyd he was a career felon that once pointed a shot gun at a pregnant woman’s stomach during a armed robbery… karma has a way of catching up with these folks but at the end of the day He was a skidmark on society and will not be missed
Johnson is spitting on the grave of Officer Sicknick and complicit in murder and insurrection against America’s Democracy.
America’s dysfunctional “democracy”.
None of what you assert is supported by any facts. You should be thrown off of You Tube…and in fact…I shall report you now.
How these people think that increasing racist policies will fix the race problem is beyond comprehension
stop promoting racism
Ron Johnson is morally and intellectually unfit to hold any political office. Should be put in prison for sedition.
Explain why, and be very precise.

RIDICULOUS: it was a terrorist attack, plain and simple. Is anyone truly surprised?
COVID is CCP’s BioWeapon. search risk-life-flee-china virologist’s twitter @DrLiMengYAN1 and her gene evidence reports, get a Gene guy you TRUST(not the famous ones on TV) to verify her reports, she has waken the right(she had to talk to the right 1st because the right was in power), help her waken the left!!
PS：why CCP didn’t allow wuhan people go anywhere in china, but allowed them to go overseas?
